Report: Lions interested in Steve Breaston

The Lions are reportedly one of five teams interested in Steve's services. Would be a nice slot guy for Matt Stafford, pretty dependable player and dangerous in space - which he would have plenty of with Megatron commanding constant double and triple coverage.

It would be a great fit for both sides - no doubt in my mind that Breaston would see a return to his Arizona numbers when he was playing alongside Fitzgerald. Even if you think the Lions are the worst thing ever, their pass heavy offense is certainly not career suicide for good wide recievers.

This would be great for both Breaston and the Lions. Say what you want about the Lions, but they throw the ball more than any other team (I believe) and Stafford is still getting better. And for the Lions, Breaston is like a better Titus Young, but without the baggage.

If I played ball, the Browns would probably one of the last places I'd want to end up (sorry Cleveland fans). However, as many players over the years have stated, the NFL is a business first. If the Browns pony up the $$$, I would have to assume he is theirs.

Love to see him in Detroit; we need a midfield threat like nobody's business.

This is true. HOWEVER, Calvin drawing double and triple coverage can make for some pretty easy TD receptions from Stafford.

In Cleveland, barring the very unlikely draft of a first round WR talent, he would automatically be the #1 option with Weeden as his QB and only Greg Little to take pressure off.

Plus, Pitt has a truly horrendous O line. The whole "run around and improv until something happens" offense is not a winning strategy when you have no Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown decides to suspend himself for being an asshat.

That said, I would love to see him come here since we are the best fit but you are 100% right, money counts twice.

I see Denard in the backfield in Jahvid Bests former role. He's already shown the ability to carry the ball and at 5'11, 199lbs (combine numbers) he's pretty much exactly the same size as Best.

I understand the slot WR thing with Randle El and other former QBs going that route but Denard has more than just crazy speed. He's got great vision, patience, quickness and acceleration to get to the next level of the D. In the Lions pass happy offense he'd get a lot of Shotgun draws which is his specialty as we all know.

Besides both being white neither player has anything in common. Stafford has thrown for more touchdowns than INTs in his two full seasons as a starter. He did this with numerous injuries at the WR spot last year.

It's easy to say "Lions suck". It is not so easy to actually analyze the team.
